- How is the cut-off mark for Economics at FULAFIA determined?

The official cut-off mark is published on the JAMB website (jamb.gov.ng) and the Federal University, Lafia admission portal (fulafia.edu.ng). Always refer to these sources for the most accurate and up-to-date figure. - What happens if my UTME score is below the cut-off mark for Economics?
